Ones We Don't Use

The Cultured Kid
I'm not big into monthly subscriptions and at $40/month I just couldn't justify this one. The part I liked best were the videos (free preview) but since they were so similar to Little Pim's I found myself just sticking with those. I also wasn't a fan of their worksheets, especially when you can find awesome ones, both paid and free, at TPT. I could, however, see this program working for someone if funds weren't an issue or you didn't speak French yourself and wanted someone to walk you step by step through the process.

Dino Lingo
Our library had these available free through Hoopla and although Jubilee liked them they just weren't my favorite. I felt the graphics were cheesy and the program seemed simple. With other great options out there this one is just a pass for me.
